I'm a father of four kids, ranging from diapers to college. I have a wonderful wife who sacrifices a lot to support my passion. I earned my AAS in Welding Technology in 2012 and worked in power generation for over four years before transitioning to mechanical piping. As a fabrication foreman at a local company, I excelled in thinking outside the box and simplifying complex problems. For over three years now, I've been a welding instructor at SCC Lincoln, and I absolutely love it.
I've always been artistic, taking every art class I could and playing the trombone as a kid. But now, I find joy in creating things that are not just pretty, but useful too. I love making items that fit perfectly into your life, working well and looking like they've always been there. It's about completing a space so it feels just right.
